On 30 April 2021, the Security and Intelligence Service carried out teaching activities within the course “Actual Problems of National Security”, organized by the Military Academy of the Armed Forces "Alexandru cel Bun".
Intelligence officers held lectures on topical issues of national security to participants of the postgraduate course in security and defence – representatives of state institutions, civil society and different religious confessions.
Participants had the possibility to learn information about SIS evolution and its role in the national security system. Also, SIS officers made a presentation on National Institute of Intelligence and Security “Bogdan, Întemeietorul Moldovei” – the only educational institution in the country that trains specialists in intelligence, counterintelligence, and special investigative activity for the needs of SIS and other institutions with responsibilities in this field.
The lectures covered topics concerning competences of the SIS in protection of the state secret, classification of information related to national security with respect to primacy of the public interest, right to freedom of expression and right to information. Moreover, a representative of the SIS Anti-Terrorism Centre talked about responsibilities in preventing and countering terrorism, since this negative phenomenon is growing.
Also, the event included an interactive component, when SIS officers answered questions of the participants and encouraged their involvement in promotion of security culture.
